A Look Back at Oscars Red Carpet Fashions

No Comments

Tonight is Oscars! And if you’re like me, then you’re more interested in the Red Carpet show than the actual awards show. Don’t get me wrong… I love film and entertainment and the whole aspect of film-making, but I love watching all of the actresses and actors walking the red carpet, showing off their designer frocks and their personal style. I love to see the glitz and glam that some of these entertainers put on display. The 89th Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, will honor the best films of 2016 and will take […]

The first year I purchased this beauty advent calendar, I discovered several new beauty brands that I never heard of and fell in love with a couple of products that I quickly realized that I couldn’t live without.

Loving the Look of Faux Shearling

No Comments

I really love the look and feel of faux shearling. You can wear faux shearling or you can decorate with it. I love that you can wear a faux shearling vest with short or long sleeve shirts. You can dress down an outfit with a faux shearling jacket or dress up a pair of pants or a dress with a sleek black faux shearling vest. Faux shearling jackets and vests come in many beautiful styles and colors. Not only are they stylist, but they are so soft. I also love that you can wear them in the fall, winter, and spring… basically anytime it’s cold! […]

Dressing my Dress Form with Butterflies

No Comments

Spring is right around the corner and I’m going through my closet pulling out some of my favorite spring pieces. With Spring, comes lovely pastel colors and sweet patterns, like this bitterly dress shirt. Today on the blog, I’m sharing one of my weekend favorites – jeans and a dress shirt. Today’s dress form outfit features a shirt from Forever 21, jeans from G by Giuliana (purchased on HSN), and lace-up wedge sandals. My name {Vanessa} means butterfly and I just gravitated to this shirt. I wear is a lot throughout the year, especially in the Spring and Summer months. The pastel […]
